You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

We have our crew! Starting loyalty cards will be going out. I need two more pieces of information:

1. Adama's starting draw (three cards from 3G/2P)
2. Apollo's starting position. Apollo, you may start in either Sector 5 or Sector 6.

However, I'm pretty sure I've never played Cally because I don't recall ever having the power to shoot someone in the face!

You have played Cally once before, in game 11. However, you didn't get to shoot anyone IN THE FACE. You did get to activate the Airlock on Dee, which seems strangely hands-off for everyone's favourite homicidal maniac; and you managed to get executed yourself.

According to my records, the only characters you haven't yet chosen are: Apollo, Dee, Ellen and Roslin. That makes you the only person in this game never to have chosen Apollo.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

BSG

I almost tried to play Apollo again, since the first time I played him I got SHOT IN THE FACE and then I was a Cylon.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Sector 6, please.

Thrive to spite them

I thought about being the Chief.

I'll go with 2 G 1 P

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I was Chief for a short time, if I recall, before being killed in that one game where I died like three times.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

The gas spore was one of those WTF creatures. I mean its entire reproduction plan involved being attacked, but it looked like something no sane creature (adventurers not being high on the sanity chart, really) would mess with.
